  1. Camera App saving to random location


    Hi all,


    The Camera App is saving to a random location. None of the information I've found has come close.


    When I open the image, it has opened in the Photo app, but has no UI to save or manage the images. I can only organize them into albums...
    When I select a photo, the UI gives me an option to "import" which just requests a folder location to import...

    I managed to find the folder location saved: C:\Users\<my profile>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries\CameraRoll.library-ms


    How on earth do I change that?


    Orry R.

    :)

    Photographs saved in camera roll not showing location

    Hello

    I, too, have lost this particular functionality.

    I have the 950. At first, the location was saved with photos, but no longer.

    I have reviewed all the privacy and location settings I can think of. Everything is enabled. I have tried the soft reset suggested by Jose, and that has made no difference.

    Here's the settings I've checked:

    • Privacy Settings
      • Location Settings
        • Location = "on"
        • Relevant Apps set to access location:
          • Blink
          • Camera
          • Cortana
          • Lumia Creative Studio
          • Lumia Motion Data
      • Camera Settings
        • Let apps use my camera = "on"
      • Background Apps Settings
        • Windows Camera = "On"
    I can't find anything else that affects the camera and its access to location data.

    Can anyone help?

    Hi,

    Configuration settings may be the possible cause why you're unable to change the location of where you save your photos. To assist you better, we'd like to gather more information:

    • Have you made any recent changes prior to this issue?
    • Are you able to choose other location before aside from This PC or D Drive?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you follow these steps on how to change the location where you save your Photos as a work around:

    • Go to Libraries then select the Camera Roll.
    • Right-clicked Camera Roll and choose Properties.
    • Under Camera Roll Properties, Click the button Add and look for OneDrive.
    • After choosing OneDrive, click Set as location button.
    • Click Apply and OK.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Camera App saving to random location

    Moving to a retail location. Need camera advice.

    Who has experience with IP cameras? I need to place 2 or 3 cameras in my showroom and have the ability to view them from any location and also have the video recorded.

    Any suggestions on a cheap camera/software package to do this? I have computers and network hardware I can dedicate for the job.
